Tip for purchase new power cable
I haven't heard any of the 3 cables indicated but I do have a fair amount of experience with Oyaide plugs, AC and XLR, and their outlets.  If you're using stock cords, I can't imagine the Tunami wouldn't be a significant step up.  They are quite a... 
Upgrade from an Audio Alchemy DDP 1 + PS 5 power supply?
The T+A 200 looks quite impressive but $7000 is way out of my budget.  If you get one, Patrick, please let me know how it compares to the AA DDP 1.  Thanks  
Upgrade from an Audio Alchemy DDP 1 + PS 5 power supply?
I purchased an upgraded umbilical from Revelation Audio Labs at the time I bought the Audio Alchemy duo and that was a pretty big improvement.  A Neotech NEVD 2001 with an Oyaide BNC and Xhadow RCA digital cable was a significant step up from my p... 
Considering A 20-40 Watt Stereo SET Amp
The JAS Array is a 45w SET that can be ran as an integrated with 4 inputs and a passive preamp section or, with the flick of a switch, can be ran as a stereo amplifier using your choice of separate preamps.  With premium tubes, it's one of the bes... 
Digital XLO signature RCA cable : Changing one end to BNC
If XLO is out of business, then you could have either Partsconnexion or Take 5 Audio in Canada do the retermination.  Cullen cables also does reterms if you aren't comfortable doing it yourself (I'm not and have had both Canadian companies cable o... 
Digital XLO signature RCA cable : Changing one end to BNC
Have XLO do the re-termination for and the Oyaide BNC is a very good connector.  If your system is sufficiently resolving, you'll definitely hear the deleterious effects of the adapter. My experience with the Cardas xlr-to-rca adapters showed them... 
Should I Keep my Second CD Player?
Sell both players and pick up a Modwright Oppo BDP 105.  I had the older BDP 83SE modified by Modwright and it was a very musical player.  Suppose the 105 would be even beter.  
Power cords known to produce good bass
The Oyaide 004 can accept a large gauge wire.  I've doubled up on cables before, inserting 2 power cables into a single pair of 004 plugs, twisting the cables around each other.  This has created a warmer, fuller sound using some vintage silver pl... 
Digital coax cables
I had the AZ MC2 and it's a pretty good digital cable.  My transport, a Bel Canto  CDT 3, uses a bnc connection so I shopped around for a cable with bnc on one end and rca on the other and found, built by Take 5 Audio of Canada, a Neotech NEVD 200... 
Power cord - 5 ft vs 10 ft ?
Most of my power cords are of the DIY persuasion and I have a nice stash of Oyaide 046 and 004 plugs.  I bought a few hundred feet of rather good silver plated solid core copper wire some years ago and have built several power cords of varying len... 
Best dealer on Ebay to purchase authentic new Oyaide products from
alucard19---the war audio store is exactly what I'm looking for.  Great price!  Thanks for turning me on to them.    
Best dealer on Ebay to purchase authentic new Oyaide products from
The US dealers are charging around $300 for a set and I need 2 sets for a retermination project.  And the cable manufacturer is charging $350 for the service so.....   really would like to get the xlr plugs as cheap as possible and I've bought Oya... 
with Pathos Classic One MKIII Hybrid Integrated Amplifier
I have a large but quite efficient pair of custom/DIY loudspeakers similar to Legacy Focus in design using Eton drivers.  I had driven the satellite section of these speakers (tweeter/midrange/mid-bass drivers) with a 45w SET, JAS Array 2.1 and a ... 
Oyaide P004 and C004 plugs
I had the Furutech FI-25 G briefly and was not impressed.  I had several of IeGO plugs at that time, including their gold plug, and found the IeGO's all better, preferable, to the FI-25.  I did a lot of mixing with plugs, blending the sound of eac... 
Oyaide P004 and C004 plugs
Which Furutech plugs did you have?  I use several of the 004 Oyaides in my system.  They are quite neutral but hide nothing.  I had the Oyaide 046 before and thought the 004 were a bit aggressive when I first installed them.  That changed pretty q...
